Chapter 129 Is Xie Qingcen going to break his promise?
Xie Qingcen chatted with Ruan Liuzheng for a few more sentences, and finally, because he was really worried that Ruan Liuzheng would be distracted, he hung up the phone reluctantly.
He looked at the black screen of the phone in his hand, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, his smile as gentle as spring breeze.
After a while, he put away his phone, turned around and went back to the sofa. The smile on his handsome face was no longer visible.
He returned to his usual calm and serious self.
But the aura around him was much softer than before.
Xie Qingcen's dark eyes moved slightly, and finally stopped on one of the pairs of rings.
The ring is not too luxurious, with only one diamond as the most matching piece, but the ring structure used in the ring is a Möbius strip that will never be separated.
It is simple and elegant, and its meaning is very much favored by him.
Xie Qingcen fell in love with her almost at first sight.
He raised his chin slightly, motioning the clerk to bring the ring over, but his brows remained indifferent.
The clerk received instructions and stretched out her white-gloved hand, carefully picking up the dark blue ring box.
She handed it to Xie Qingcen and explained with a smile, "Mr. Xie has a good eye. This ring is the latest product launched by our brand."
"Although the style is simple, the structure and meaning are excellent and are deeply loved by young people today. It has become a hot item of our brand."
Xie Qingcen glanced at the clerk indifferently, his eyebrows lowered, his dark eyes fell on the two rings in his hands, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his thin lips.
If time wasn't so tight, he would actually like to design the wedding rings for him and Ruan Liuzheng himself.
Although Xie Qingcen studied finance and law, when he was young and frivolous, he was interested in everything.
Xie's father and mother did not restrict him. They let him study almost anything he wanted, as long as he studied finance.
He has had a strong learning ability since he was young, and he can be said to be proficient in anything he learns.
Because he is not a person who likes to give up halfway.
What's more, if Xie Qingcen didn't really like it or was curious about it, there was no way he would have spent time learning those boring things.
So even though he is only in his thirties, the fields he has covered are extremely broad.
Jewelry design is one of the fields he has studied.
However, expectations could never keep up with changes, and according to the current situation, he had no choice but to go against his original idea.
Fortunately, Ruan Liuzheng has no intention of holding a wedding at the moment, so Xie Qingcen has enough time to design a pair of diamond rings exclusively for him and Ruan Liuzheng.
The reason why he made this temporary choice now was simply because he didn't want to let Ruan Liuzheng down.
Ruan Liuzheng had already proposed, so he would be the one to prepare the diamond ring.
And he guessed that Ruan Liuzheng would not think of this now.
Xie Qingcen's smile deepened. He suddenly closed the diamond ring box, nodded and said, "This is it. You can go down to Hanfei's Finance Department to get reimbursed."
Seeing that this big order was completed, the clerk immediately showed a happy smile on her face. She nodded with great joy, and her tone was a little impatient, "Okay, Mr. Xie, then we wish you and your wife a happy marriage and a long-lasting love."
"Love lasts forever and never separates."
The last sentence touched Xie Qingcen's heart. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of pleasure.
This was the only slightly sincere smile the clerk had seen on Xie Qingcen's face since he came in.
She was stunned for a moment.
But before she could come back to her senses, Xie Qingcen had already put away the ring in his hand, stood up and left the office with big strides.
Although his steps were neither fast nor slow, his back revealed a hint of urgency.
…
Bai family.
Bai Xunan sat behind his desk, his gentle face revealing a rare coldness.
He raised his eyes slightly and looked quietly at the two people opposite him. No one knew what he was thinking. The study fell into silence for a moment.
Opposite the desk, Feng Zhuyi and Bai Huanqing stood one after the other. Their faces were calm, but their fingers were tangled together with a little nervousness.
Ever since Bai Huanqing finished persuading him, Bai Xunan has not expressed his attitude. He remained silent, but his eyes became increasingly deep.
Even Feng Zhuyi couldn't guess what the deep look meant.
Feng Zhuyi's heart sank suddenly. She frowned and stared at Bai Xunan in front of her. Just when she couldn't stand the atmosphere anymore and couldn't help but urge him, Bai Xunan finally made a move.
I saw——
Bai Xunan slowly put down the pen in his hand. His usually gentle and calm face now looked a little gloomy and difficult to discern.
There was an unknown coldness.
Feng Zhuyi and Bai Huanqing subconsciously held their breath, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous in their hearts.
They looked at Bai Xunan quietly, like two prisoners awaiting trial.
Bai Xunan smiled calmly, raised his lips and said, "Huanqing, you are my daughter, how could I let you suffer?"
"Your mother is right. Only if you gain a firm foothold in the Fu family can our Bai family move to a higher level. But..."
As soon as he changed his tone, his eyes became sharp. "You are my only daughter. No matter what happens in the future, Bai's company will be your biggest support. But why do you have to keep an eye on Jiahe? Are you hiding something from me?"
Bai Xunan looked at Feng Zhuyi and Bai Xunan in front of him expressionlessly. His mind, which had been blinded for many years, finally became a little clearer.
His eyebrows slightly frowned, and a dark light flashed across his eyes.
Jiahe is the only company belonging to the Ruan family that has not been sold by him.
It’s not that he was thinking about the old relationship, but whenever he wanted to touch Jiahe, Feng Zhuyi would find all kinds of excuses to stop him.
Bai Xunan really couldn't bear to see Feng Zhuyi's pitiful appearance, so he just let Feng Zhuyi do whatever she wanted and handed over all the affairs of Jiahe to Feng Zhuyi.
Otherwise, even if Ruan Liuzheng met Chen Liang, she would not be able to stir up any waves now.
After all, even if Ruan Liuzheng had extraordinary abilities, it would be impossible for him to take back a company whose ownership and names had been completely changed.
And this time, when he heard Ruan Liuzheng's first reaction after learning the truth, he wanted to auction Jiahe as soon as possible according to his original idea.
Although the price may be different from what was expected, it is better than falling into the hands of the Ruan family.
Even though Ruan Liuzheng had a share of his blood in her veins, Bai Xunan didn't want to return Jiahe for nothing.
What’s more…
Bai Xunan's eyes darkened, he pursed his lips, and looked at Feng Zhuyi with an increasingly deep gaze.
Feng Zhuyi and the others might not be aware of this, but he knew it very clearly in his heart that Jiahe was definitely not just an ordinary company to the Ruan family.
As long as Jiahe is still there, the Ruan family will not be eliminated from Yuncheng's upper class circle and there is still a possibility of making a comeback.
Over the years, he seemed extremely glamorous on the surface, but any wealthy family with some background knew how he got his start.
Even every time they met them, they couldn't help but associate him with the former Ruan family.
And in the final analysis, it all comes down to the fact that Jiahe is still there and the Ruan family’s roots are still there.
However, he endured all these invisible humiliations because of Feng Zhuyi.
But now, things are about to get out of control. Feng Zhuyi actually wants him to use Bai's resources to compete with Ruan Liuzheng for Jiahe, instead of directly choosing a method that will solve the problem once and for all.
Feng Zhuyi knew clearly how much he hated Jiahe and the former Ruan family.
Every time he heard people compare him with the Ruan family, he felt like he was back in the past, a life where he had to read people's faces and fawn over women.
That was the greatest shame of his life.
Bai Xunan's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Feng Zhuyi with increasing suspicion.
When Feng Zhuyi saw this, she seemed to have thought of something and her body stiffened.
She took a deep breath, her eyes sparkled, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
His eyes looked somewhat aggrieved.
"Xunan, we have been married for so many years, and you... actually doubt me so much? Could it be that in your heart, I am such a scheming woman?"
The more Feng Zhuyi spoke, the more excited she became, and in the end she even looked like she was crying.
She held Bai Huanqing's arm, her eyes gleaming with a hint of tears.
Looks aggrieved yet pitiful.
But her appearance is different from Bai Huanqing, and she has a little more charm than Bai Huanqing.
That is formed through the ups and downs of life and growing older.
Feng Zhuyi weakly supported Bai Huanqing's arm, her face was pale and her figure was shaky.
Bai Xunan's eyes paused, he couldn't help but stand up and walk to Feng Zhuyi's side, his gentle eyes showing undisguised pity.
There was no longer any trace of suspicion.
He half-hugged Feng Zhuyi in his arms and sighed softly, as if with helplessness and concern.
"Zhu Yi, how could I doubt you? Why are you so obsessed with Jia He? Now I have the ability to support you and Huan Qing, and I have the ability to give you a life without worries about food and clothing. You can stay at home and be a leisurely and comfortable wife of a wealthy family."
"Why do you have to keep running around outside?"
Feng Zhuyi leaned softly in Bai Xunan's arms. Hearing his words, a hint of subtle sarcasm flashed across her eyes.
The reason why she wanted to take away Jiahe was to secretly build up her own power.
It was impossible for her to place all her bets on Bai Xunan, even though Bai Xunan now obeyed her every word.
But just in case, she had to make preparations for both scenarios.
After all, men's hearts are fickle, and no one can predict what will happen in the future.
Feng Zhuyi held Bai Xunan's hand tightly and smiled faintly, "But I want to help you share the burden. I am really worried about you when I see you busy with the company's affairs every day."
…
Civil Affairs Bureau.
Ruan Liuzheng stood quietly at the door, looking ahead with cold and lifeless eyes, waiting for Xie Qingcen to appear.
Half an hour had passed since she and Xie Qingcen hung up the phone.
Xie Qingcen is not someone who is easily late, but he has not shown up until now.
There wasn't even a single message, as if he had suddenly disappeared.
Ruan Liuzheng frowned slightly and glanced at the phone in her hand indifferently.
The corners of her light pink lips curled up in a bitter arc.
